To begin, open the Settings app via the quick settings or app drawer. Here, select the General Management option.
Tap on Reset at the bottom of the General Management menu. You’ll now see multiple reset options, such as Reset All Settings, Reset Mobile Network Settings, Reset Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Settings, Reset Accessibility Settings and Factory Data Reset.
Choose Reset Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Settings. A description will appear, explaining that this will reset all network settings including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and mobile data.
Tap Reset Settings at the bottom of the screen to confirm. Enter your PIN, password, or pattern if prompted.
Your phone will process the reset and then restart automatically. Once done, all saved Wi-Fi networks, paired Bluetooth devices, and mobile network preferences will be deleted.
After the Reset
Reconnect to your Wi-Fi network by entering the password again.
Re-pair your Bluetooth accessories (earbuds, speakers, watches, etc.).
Reconfigure any mobile network or hotspot settings if needed.
You should consider resetting Wi-Fi and Bluetooth settings if you’re facing any of these issues:
Wi-Fi not connecting or disconnecting frequently
Bluetooth not pairing or dropping connection
Slow or unstable internet connection
Problems after a system update
Important Note: This process only resets network-related settings—it does not delete your personal data, photos, or apps. However, you’ll need to re-enter Wi-Fi passwords and pair Bluetooth devices again.
